PHARMACODYNAMICS
Mometasone is a synthetic corticosteroid with an affinity for glucocorticoid receptors 22 times higher than that of [dexamethasone][A176906]. Mometasone furoate also has a lower affinity to mineralocorticoid receptors than natural corticosteroids, making it more selective in its action[A176906]. Mometasone furoate diffuses across cell membranes to activate pathways responsible for reducing inflammation[FDA Label][A176900,A176906,A176918,F4292,F4295].
MOA
In asthma, mometasone is believed to inhibit mast cells, eosinophils, basophils, and lymphocytes[A176918]. There is also evidence of inhibition of histamine, leukotrienes, and cytokines[A176918].; ; Corticosteroids diffuse across cell membranes into the cytosol of cells where they bind to glucocorticoid receptors to produce their activity[A176906]. Mometasone furoate has a particularly high receptor affinity compare to other corticosteroids, 22 times higher than that of [dexamethasone][A176906]. Mometasone furoate binding to a glucocorticoid receptor causes conformational changes in the receptor, separation from chaperones, and the receptor moves to the nucleus[A176918]. Once at the nucleus, receptors dimerize and bind to a DNA sequence known as the glucocorticoid response element which either increases expression of anti-inflammatory molecules or inhibits expression of pro-inflammatory molecules (such as interleukins 4 and 5)[A176918]. Mometasone furoate also reduces inflammation by blocking transcription factors such as activator-protein-1 and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB)[A176906,A176918].
INDICATION
There are 3 formulations of mometasone furoate with various indications. The inhaler is indicated for prophylaxis of asthma in patients â¥4 years[FDA Label]. The nasal spray is indicated for treating nasal symptoms of allergic rhinitis in patients â¥2 years, treating symptoms of nasal congestion from seasonal allergic rhinitis in patients â¥2 years, treating nasal polyps in patients â¥18 years, and prophylaxis of seasonal allergic rhinitis in patients â¥12 years[F4292]. The ointment is indicated for symptomatic treatment of dermatitis and pruritis in patients â¥2 years[F4295].
ROE
For an inhaled dose, approximately 74% is excreted in the feces and 8% is excreted in the urine[FDA Label][F4292].
METABOLISM
Metabolism of mometasone furoate is largely performed hepatically by cytochrome P450 3A4 producing a number of metabolites[FDA Label][F4292,A176900,A176918]. Some of these metabolites include free mometasone and 6-beta-hydroxy-mometasone furoate[A176900,A176918,A176879].
ABSORPTION
The mean time to peak concentration is 1.0 to 2.5 hours[FDA Label]. Bioavailability has been reported as <1%[FDA Label] but studies of repeat doses of inhaled corticosteroids suggest a bioavailability of 11%[A176918]. The 0.1% ointment may have a bioavailability of 0.7%[F4295].
HALF-LIFE
The terminal half life of an inhaled dose is approximately 5 hours[FDA Label] though it has been reported as 5.8 hours by other sources[F4292,A176906].
TOXICITY
Overdose with a mometasone furoate inhaler may occur with chronic overuse[FDA Label][F4292]. Symptoms of chronic overuse may present as hypercorticism and adrenal suppression, and patients may not require any more treatment than monitoring[FDA Label][F4292].; ; In animal studies of pregnancy, some fetal toxic effects were seen at or above the maximum recommended human dose, though rodents are more sensitive to these effects than humans[FDA Label][F4292,F4295]. The benefits and risks of use should be considered in pregnant patients[F4292,F4295]; ; It is unknown if mometasone furoate is excreted in breast milk but other corticosteroids are and therefore caution should be exercised when administering to nursing mothers[FDA Label][F4292,F4295].; ; Safety and effectiveness in pediatric populations has been established through clinical trials, though there may be a reduction in expected growth of about 1cm per year depending on the dose and duration of treatment[FDA Label]. Pediatric patients should be titrated to the lowest effective dose for mometasone furoate inhalers[FDA Label].; ; A trial of geriatric patients showed no difference in safety or efficacy compared to younger patients, however patients of an even greater age may still be more sensitive to mometasone furoate[FDA Label][F4292,F4295].; ; The use of a mometasone furoate inhaler in moderate or severe hepatic impairment rarely leads to detectable plasma concentrations though caution may be prudent with increasing degrees of severity[FDA Label][F4292].; ; The effects of mometasone furoate in renal impairment, and across gender and race have not been studied[FDA Label][F4292].
